Meeting date: 24 January 2024

During that short break, we had a look at what lies ahead of us in the various groupings and made the decision to suspend consideration of the bill at stage 2 for today. When we come back next week, we will start with section 12, on reporting restrictions and self-identification.

That therefore concludes our consideration of the bill at stage 2 for today. As I have just outlined, we will continue its consideration at our next meeting, on 31 January. I thank everyone for their time this morning.

Meeting closed at 12:34.

Yes.

Budget Scrutiny 2024-25 and Education Reform

Meeting date: 17 January 2024

Sue Webber

Finally, cabinet secretary, you have spoken about resetting your relationship with local authorities and the way that you work together. I am interested in what scorecard you might give to the City of Edinburgh Council, which is looking to deliver £8.2 million of cuts to the devolved school management fund—if you are aware of that.

Education, Children and Young People Committee

Budget Scrutiny 2024-25 and Education Reform

Meeting date: 17 January 2024

Sue Webber

As you will know, cabinet secretary, last week we had before us one of your ministers, the Minister for Higher and Further Education. The part of the budget that we were discussing at that meeting set out a cut in the resource budget for further and higher education. Last year, those budgets faced in-year cuts. Last week, the minister could not, when he was asked about it, rule out that happening again for the coming year. What can you say about whether further in-year cuts may be likely to happen in 2024-25?

Meeting date: 17 January 2024

Sue Webber

I am asking for some real clarity and detail as to where the £56 million has come from and how it has come about. It would be good, if it is possible, to get some more detail on the specifics of that. Cabinet secretary, you mentioned a number of programmes, but it would be good to see what proportion of that £56 million came from each of those.
